This may be TMI, but I really want some advice and am wondering if anyone is experiencing the same thing.

When I had Ian, I ripped literally from one end to the other and needed a ton of stitching. Well, now it's 3 months later, and I'm still having a lot of discomfort where the stitches are. It's not all the time, but when it "flares up", it's really uncomfortable, like when it was healing. When I went for my 6 week check, the OB said there was some scar tissue that should soften over time and feel better, but, like I said, it's been 3 months and it's still going on.

What should I do? I've thought about calling, but the OB is on maternity leave and I really don't want to see one of the other doctors.

If it were me, Theresa, I'd call. What can it hurt for them to check you out again? And if something was not healed properly, and they could correct it, think of how much better you would feel?

Thanks, Karly! I think I will call when my doctor gets back from maternity leave.
